.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Wintext
prints the text of the current
.I win
(see
.IR acme (1))
or
.IR 9term (1)
window to standard output.
.PP
.I \*y
searches the window text for commands typed with a particular prefix
and prints them, indented, to standard output.
.I Prefix
is a regular expression that is matched against the beginning of the command-line.
If
.I prefix
is omitted,
.I \*y
prints the last command executed.
.I \*(yy
prints the last command that
.I \*y
would print and then executes it by piping it into 
.IR rc (1).
.PP
Both
.I \*y
and
.I \*(yy
identify commands in the window text by looking for lines
beginning with a shell prompt.
Prompts are assumed to be an unindented sequence of
non-whitespace characters followed by one of the
characters
.BR % ,
.BR ; ,
.BR $ ,
or
.BR # .
